been there with some friends on our way from sedona to the pacific coast for a one night stop over.
the hotel is located next to the highway, the romms in the back are quiet enough. the rooms itself were basic but clean. unfortunately, the wifi didn't work for most of the time. the staff at the reception was friendly...

Arrived in Twenty Nine palms looking for a one night stay. Motel was available, clean rooms and nice staff. Lovely to be able to sit out in the evening outside by the pool and read my book - a little oasis in the desert

Spent 3 days exploring Joshua Tree National Park and stayed at this motel
Its close the entrance to the park. Walking distance to restaurants and convenience stores. Had a room with separate kitchenette and bathroom. Kitchen doesn't come with any utensils,plates or crockery but the office lent us a couple of pans. Cooker was tired but worked fine as did...

Traveling through after visiting Joshua Tree NP, we spent one night at El Rancho Delores. What a find! Meticulous grounds and building exteriors. While a little small, our king size bed room was equally clean and fresh. This is a great value and exceeds chain hotels charging twice the price.
The only missing item is morning coffee in the office....

Don't confuse a 4-star review for this roadside motel with it being a 4-star hotel. We stayed here for just one night after the Joshua Tree Music Festival in June. All we needed was a place to crash for one night after a day of fun - somewhere to sleep and shower in the morning before hitting the road back...

We stayed here in mid July for the summer concert in the park series. We booked the family suite which had two rooms, a kitchen and a shared bath. The place was so clean! The one drawback was the A/C was in one room and the other room had a fan which did not oscillate. We will definitely go back...

Convenient to entrance to Joshua Tree National Park, this motel is very basic, but for $79 provided a clean, nice one night stay. Pool is basic but clean. Everything in room was functional and clean. Don't expect luxury, but for the price- this was a great stay! And you get the convenience of parking directly outside your door.

For the price, and what else is available for that price, this place was fine. Room was small but fairly clean. Came with a fridge, microwave and free HBO. Actually a lot of tv channels to chose from which was great. Nice clean pool, and free wifi also.

We stayed here for three nights, my partner, her niece and I. We had a family room consisting of two separate bedrooms one with two queen beds the other with a single queen. Separate entrances from each bedroom to the bathroom and a small "kitchenette" off of the single bedroom. The kitchenette had a cooker and oven, microwave, sink and...

Just spent 5 nights here. It's a great location, close to everything. Very nice pool. Right on the hi way but very quiet. It's clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. The manager was wonderful. I would stay here again. Nice upgrades to the rooms.
